Letters: Too much talk

Sir: Surely what is wrong with Radio 3 and its music policy (Letters, 23 May) is that nowadays we rarely hear music being played. What we get, in the main, is people talking about music.

Before the present regime took over, if you switched on Radio 3 at any hour of the day or night, the chances were that music would be playing or an interesting play was being performed. Now it's almost always people discussing music - boringly and interminably.
